I was told this chick is 5 weeks but she definitely isn't.
She still has some down baby feathers on her.
I have others I was planning to put her with but she is half or less than they are in size.
For now im keeping inside but she's alone :(
I drove 4 hours each way for her and want to do my...
I'm hoping she is a she. I bought 3 zombies and fell in love with this barn yard mix so she gave her to me. She said she'd take it back if it's a roo. Likely sapphire gem mom and either splash easter egg dad or wyandott. Does she look like a pullet?
I bought a zombie mix hen almost 2 months ago. She is old. She only lays one to 2 eggs a week but I got her from some kids at a flea market. She must have some silky in her. She obviously came from a farm because she's very intelligent. She's very wise. I don't know how to explain it. BUT my...
I'm considering this breed for chicken protection. They are 8 weeks and raised with chickens and goats. Do I start this tiny puppy outside or kepe it inside until older? What's best? Any suggestions?
Well I have been fighting coryza in one chicken for a month now.
I have tried
Tylan powder
Denegard
Batril
I took her to the vet today. He gave her an injection of LA 300
He gave me a second to do in 3 to 5 days.
Has this treatment worked for anyone?
I'm hoping to save her
I'm aware that I...
I had my flock come down with what the vet said seemed to be mycoplasma. We treated with Tylan powder through water and everyone but the newest chicken I purchased has gotten better. (I did quarantine) She is young. Sweetest girl I have ever had. She is a zombie that I paid a lot of money for...
They have been indoors with no added heat for a few weeks now. They are fully feathered. 2 australorps, 2 barred rock, and 2 easter eggers. They have been outside all day today in the 40s and 50s
It seems it will get as low as 27 tonight though in Mississippi. They have a coop with wood chips...
I went to the vet and got tylan but I have one chicken who isn't drinking enough to get well. Can I direct dose her somehow? Everyone else is better now but she's still got bubbly eyes. She's separated inside because they were picking on her.
Bob is a Murray mcmurray ameracauna. So Bob is an Easter egger. Bob was sexed a female but gives major cockerel vibes. Bob is 4 and half weeks. Does anything point to cockerel or pullet yet? Bob pooped in my floor to let me get these photos
So Winnie came to me looking like a normal day old chick but her wing is only partially there and angles across her body. She doesn't seem to be able to fly. Does anyone have any like her or have any suggestions?
I have lost several hens over the last 2 years. 4 to a dog, 1 to sickness, 2 to a fox, 1 to a raccoon. I am rebuilding my flock now. I currently am down to 3 adult hens and one RIR rooster. They were raised together. One of those hens had her first HARD molt. I think she is through with it, but...
I ordered chicks for the first time from mcmurray. I ordered 2 ameracaunas. I know they are easter eggers. But after I've had them for a week and they are starting to feather, one has only one wing and a nub for the other. Does anyone have any experience with this? It's definitely a birth...
Saturday it was extremely hot and humid. I went out to check my chickens and one was stumbling around and unable to maintain her balance. I grabbed her and brought her inside. Thought she was was overheated. She eats anything in front of her. She will not drink water though. I have syringed some...
Sunday afternoon tragedy struck. 2 dogs from a half a mile down the road (owners have chickens too) massacred my flock. My babies free range from 12 to 6 daily. We heard something and my husband ran outside and saw the dogs. He grabbed a gun and while chasing to get a shot he fell. He broke a...
I got my chickens in January and have discovered a deep love for birds. I have one in my house now who is recovering from an injury but she is going back outside soon to rejoin her flock. I have decided to adopt a parrot or cockatoo. I am making a drive from MS to OH this weekend to meet several...
Hi, a few weeks ago I thought my chickens were ready to be integrated. They are 11 weeks apart. I think the youngest were about 6 weeks. I did the no touch for a couple weeks. Then did supervised free ranging and moved on to them being the run together supervised. After a few days of this I...
I waited 5 months for this and the day has come! My smallest chicken of my first flock laid her first egg and it was in the nesting box. I'm so proud of her. Thank you Georgia. She is a rhode island red. It's tiny but it's so perfect 🥰
Look at this girl....she is a total ham and I understand why. She is my only leghorn but omg she is nothing like described. So friendly and sweet. Her name is Butters
